124. There are dogs in the middle
The death of Qu Bin and his wife was very coincidental, because after falling into the bathtub, the heads of the two people were knocked unconscious, so they drowned in the water of the bathtub. It was the housekeeping aunt who found them dead, although the police did not let the news of the death scene be revealed before the case was characterized, but the screaming voice of the housekeeping aunt attracted the neighbors, Qu Bin and the two died in the bath, and the rumors were outrageous, and it was said that Qu Bin actually took a mandarin duck bath at this age, and sure enough, something happened.
But the police quickly came to the conclusion this time, the two did not die of murder, but died accidentally, there was no trace of others entering the scene, and the guard downstairs did not see strangers entering and leaving, and the report of the scar comparison proved that the two of them slipped their feet when they did strenuous exercise in the bathtub, and they both hit their heads and drowned.
Mu Feng couldn't tell what it was like, the living person he had seen only a few days ago died in a blink of an eye, although he had vaguely guessed that Qu Bin was likely to become the kind of negative person he didn't like, but in the end, he had the affection of a friend, and it was impossible not to be a little sad.
"I want to go and see it." Mu Feng couldn't tell why he wanted to go to the scene of death, maybe it was his sixth sense, he felt that Qu Bin's death was not so simple.
Ying Disobedience doesn't have much feeling about other people's things, maybe it's a ghost who has been a ghost for a long time, and he has seen the boundary between life and death very lightly, but if he goes to Mufeng, he can feel more at ease, he doesn't mind Mufeng to find out about it. "Let's go together, that door won't stop us anyway."
Mu Feng and Ying Wei used a blindfold to avoid the janitor downstairs, and entered Qu Bin's room without effort, which had been cleaned up by Qu Bin's home, but no one had touched the bathroom at the first scene of death. Even after ten days, the water in the bathtub has not been released, which is convenient for Mu Feng, and almost the moment he touches the water, he senses that there is a demonic aura in the water. The demonic aura is not strong, and it almost melts into the water.
Mu Feng's sense of aura has become much keen, and he can sense that the demon qi in this water has water attributes, which should belong to the monsters close to the water.
Ying Rebellious stretched out his hand and a black shadow appeared out of thin air, this remnant soul was a ghost left in the room, Ying rebel entered some ghost qi for him, and the remnant soul became a figure from the side of the group, but it was not the dead Qu Bin or his wife, but the appearance of a ten-year-old child. He was muttering to himself, and Ying Wei heard that the ghost was calling Dad, but he was not sane, and the whole ghost was dumbfounded.
Mu Feng looked at this dumb little ghost in surprise, he could think of Qu Bin from his appearance, they looked very similar, "This ghost has three spirits and seven spirits, and it won't stay long in the world." ”
Ying Wei nodded, "This ghost died two years ago, and it will dissipate in three days at most, but unfortunately we can't ask anything from his mouth, he has no sense." Do you think this will be Qu Bin's child? By his age, his child is about that old, and this ghost keeps calling Daddy. ”
Mu Feng couldn't be sure, he hadn't seen Qu Bin's child, not even the photo, but the clues all pointed to this inference. Could it be that Qu Bin did something sorry for the child and asked the ghost to invite a monster to help? But for an unsane ghost, that's unlikely.
"This child has a mother, and I don't think the one we've seen can give birth to such a big child. This is not Qu Bin's hometown, why don't we go to the countryside and ask, there should be an answer there. ”
Now that he has come to investigate this matter, no matter who is right or wrong, he wants to find out the cause and effect.
Duoduo raised its little paw at this point, indicating that it had something to say. Seeing Mu Feng's eyes approving it to speak, Duoduo was finally able to speak, and he had been suffocating it with toys for the past two days. "Can I taste the water in the bathtub? I can tell which youkai is here, if I've seen it before. ”
Mu Feng pinched Duoduo's rabbit face, I didn't expect you to be such a knowledgeable monster. But there is no need to be surprised, no matter how low Duoduo's aggression is, he has also lived with so many fierce beasts in the valley for thousands of years, and it is impossible that he does not have the ability to detect at all. "Could it be that you have practiced how to distinguish the types of monsters so that they can easily escape?"
Duoduo felt that the owner of the wooden seal was smart, mixed in a bunch of carnivorous beasts, how to hide and escape became instinct. It has practiced for many years before it has learned the skills of other armadillos that belong to dog monsters, but the dog monster can know from a long distance that it is not so powerful.
So it's useful, right? Duoduo looked at Mu Feng.
Mu Feng couldn't stand Duoduo's starry eyes, and he didn't know how Duoduo used his eagle eyes to make such an effect, "Feel free to taste it." ”
Philip put his head out of his rebellious bag and watched Duoduo lick the water in the tub, he made a disgusted expression and sneered at Duoduo, but he didn't laugh out loud. This strange rabbit actually went to drink water from people who had already died, which was very important for Min. The feeling of the tongue is simply unbearable, too insulting to the dignity of the tongue.
However, Philip knew that it could show a disdainful look, but it could not prevent Duoduo from helping the investigation, so it just quietly laughed and did not speak.
Duoduo didn't know if he felt Philip's affection, anyway, after tasting it, he pinched his tail in a tangled way, as if he couldn't understand something. "It's strange, the demon power in this water belongs to the monster that controls the water, but why is this smell from the monster, but the monster is obviously the monster that controls the fire, and it doesn't like water at all."
"Maybe it's just like you, it's a different kind of scourge." Philip's words are not just sarcastic, "I have never heard of a vegetarian armadillo before, the world is so big, it changes when it is not small." ”
Duoduo puffed up his mouth and wanted to say something, but he was not good at arguing, so he could only look at Philip aggrievedly, staring at Philip all the time, and he felt guilty about Philip, and actually had the idea that it was not good to bully the little monster. But Philip couldn't help it, it was rare to meet a monster with little force value like it, if you don't bully Duoduo, is it bullying and rebellious? It doesn't want to live long, so it doesn't die.
"There's nothing wrong with mutating, it's different, isn't it?" Philip added with some embarrassment that it was not a comfort.
Mu Feng didn't care about the secret competition between these two monsters, he was suspicious when he heard that the monsters that came here were scourge.
Scourge is not a monster that can get close to humans, and although it is in the form of a dog, it only submits to the strong, and its own skills and potential are also high.
There is a rule in demon cultivation, the more high-level monsters, the fewer of their kind, such as Lu Wu and Di Jiang, there is only one monster born in the chaos of the wilderness, and it is impossible to reproduce.
The descendants of monsters like dragons and phoenixes are far less bloodline than their ancestors, and as time goes by, the power of the bloodline will become weaker and weaker.
Therefore, scourge is not the same as armadillo. Before coming, Mu Feng asked Lu Wu, the number of scourge fights is not much, because of their fire attributes, they generally practice with fire attribute cultivators, such as following Zhu Rong, Yan Bo, and so on. Lu Wu was able to count out how many there were, and he was sure that the rest of the scourge had left with the cultivators they had contracted with, leaving only one to guard the Great Ding.
The nine tripods are filled with different aura, the tripod under the capital absorbs the dragon qi, the tripod brought by Xiao Wu absorbs the qi of plants and trees, the tripod in the netherworld is filled with dead qi, and the tripod in the desert is full of ghost qi, so that the tripod guarded by the scourge is equipped with the breath of fire.
This mouth tripod was cast by a fire-attribute cultivator, and it was normal to give their friends some benefits. Just like Yi Qi put Xiao Wu in the tripod to let him absorb the aura, this scourge guards the tripod and can also absorb the aura with the fire attribute. The reason why it is hidden in the land of Guangxi, which originally overlapped with the space of the fire-weary country, it was a country full of fire aura, although the space was displaced, but there was such a fault in the valley, and it was difficult for outsiders to enter, so they had to find the scourge first.
"Brother Win, I think there's a problem inside, how could such a scourge leave Dading and come to the city? What conflict can it have with Qu Bin? I have never heard of a human being who can drive a scourge. ”
"Let's go to Qu Bin's hometown first, if we can find his ex-wife, maybe we can get more clues." Ying Disobedience felt that the ghosts that appeared in the room were not normal, and that they had to go on a trip when it involved the scourge they wanted.
